Captivating Calla

I can't help being impressed with the beautiful Calla, often called a calla lily. Our daughter has several of them in the yard and they have been in their glory, but a few are beginning to fade. I really liked this group of flowers.

I found some interesting facts at this website - https://www.pickupflowers.com/flower-guide/calla-lily:

"Some Interesting Facts about Calla lilies"

"The Calla lily is a perennial bulb.
Though called a lily, Calla lilies are not really lilies.
Calla is a flowering genus of twenty-eight species originating in Africa and growing mostly in marshy areas.
Calla lilies are grown from bulbous roots with finger-like growths. These are known as tubers.
The blooming time of Calla lilies is late spring.
The word Calla comes from the Greek term for beautiful.
The Calla lily roots are poisonous."
